This makes sense I think. Will it be that common for such a service to return properties rather than the vertex containing the properties? I suppose you are thinking of a case where I do not know the key name and just search on values?

There is currently no way to traverse from a Property to its Element in Gremlin. Example use case for this would be service calls that return properties (e.g. full-text search), which could then be traversed to their owning element. I am sure there are others. I will assume a lazy consensus and proceed with this change if there are no objections in the next 72 hours. Here is the JIRA: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2713 Thanks, MIke
